Allard's opening: Makes No Sense unveiled in Nelson

LOVINGSTON– Batesville-based songstress Terri Allard unveiled her latest songs here at Oak Ridge June 29, Day One of the well-attended Nelson County Summer Festival.

With the beautiful mansion as backdrop, festival-goers sat under shady trees (mostly oaks), tasted wines from local vineyards, and grooved to some truly outstanding music. Besides Allard, the big draw was the Seldom Scene from D.C.

"Makes No Sense" is the title of Allard's disc, her fourth. Attendees got to witness a rare treat: proud papa William "Bill" Allard climbed on stage and sang a little bit of backup for a few of the songs.
